Camera clamped to a wing strut? I have remote S/W for my Nikon - I hope to
be able to clamp it outside an airplane, and use a tablet PC as the view
finder - snapping pictures at my leasure from the inside of the cabin. Of
course, I need an airplane now ---

[MBZ] Real flying

2010-11-08 Thread RELNGSON
Final Approach to Paradise

 This particular paradise is the Main Salmon River in Idaho, Wilson Bar 
USFS air strip. Tim Riley of Los Gatos, California captures the moment 
perfectly and beats out a slew of other reader photos to be named our Picture 
of 
the Week.
 Note the tent under the tree, Tim points out. (That comment kept us busy 
for a couple of minutes; maybe it'll do the same for you.)

The airplane appears to be an Aviat Husky.

Is that the strip off to the left?
Mowed strip about 8-feet wide?
Aviat Husky looks like 150 / 172? or smaller?

Super Cub knock-off?
Yes, there's a long stretch of grass and a windsock - looks like an airport
to me! But then, I learned to fly at Cache International Airport in OK - a
1700 ft. 0-180 runway, and a 1200ft. 70-250 runway - both grass.
Unfortunately, only one of the htree hangers is still standing, and only one
Tripacer calls it home now.

I can see why.

No, I spotted the tent immediately.

OK. But the camera is outside the passenger compartment, and the
left hand in the picture definitely seems to be flying the plane.
